The colt .45 cartridge was 'invented' by the Colt Firearms Manufacturing. Founded By Sam Colt. I am aware of no genealogy linking Sam Colt to Heidi Montag.
No! They will not even fit in the chamber.
Perhaps because the Colt revolver contained six bullets wheras the the S&W at the time only contained five bullets. also, prior to the colt revolver there was only a single shot percussion pistol. The colt gave a man 6 shots instead of a single shot. This made a big difference fighting indians.
The model 1873 Colt Army .45 revolver was about $17.00.
usually six, but if only 5 chambers then 5 rounds
It is likely that the WHY had the same answer as why MOST inventors invent anything- for money. There were various types of multi-shot pistols prior to the invention of the revolver, but they were of mixed success. The revolver was well marketed, and a financial success.
